Well, last night he made a test pass @190mph with boost alone. But he broke, rod bearings and something about oil? LOL.. They fixed some of it last night, the rest this am. Then...8.00 @ 195.11, all was fine. Then...7.70@191.... SUPA!! LOL, then he went to eliminations and blew up. He is satisfied and happy though, and so is everyone else, HE DID ONE HELL OF A JOB, AS ALWAYS!!!!
^copied from a friend of mine, who's husband is on his team. Sounds like he's doing quite well. I can't wait to see what new shit he plans to throw at it over the winter.

isn't he running 12 1600cc injectors? one of those alone would choke out my car

and a solid rear axle setup..amongst other things. The car looks like it's all over the place, but it's not as out of control as a recent pass at the other track-that looked like the damn ams evo! He went across both lanes. scary!

Amazing. The AMS EVO had alignment issues, that is why it was all over the place. Combine that with 900+whp and you will have major problems.

Actually, it was a right rear wheel bearing, but yea the alignment was affected.

10 I think.
he could inject 4.2 GALLONS per minute at 100% IDC :eek:
and would burn 2.1L in an 8 second period at 100% IDC
This is just some crazy shit. I was reading on another board and when someone asked about about a shift light and Shep said he'd never used one, just always shifts by feel. That's some impressive shit for the power and speed he has to control.
I can't wait to see what his car will do next year!
